The2020 symposium, held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic, showcased the program'sadaptability. Following a hiatus in 2021, the FDS made a return with in-person meetings duringSHPE’s annual convention in 2022 and 2023
engineering programs are added each year across the US and abroad, but anyone who hasstarted a new program knows that there are numerous “start-up” challenges to designing andlaunching a new program. The University of North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill, which isstarting a new undergraduate multi-disciplinary engineering major, and Franklin W. Olin Collegeof Engineering (Olin), which has “drive change in engineering education” as part of its mission,partnered to create EMERGE (Entrepreneurially Minded Engineering Resource Group forEducators) in the summer of 2020. EMERGE began as a free, optional add-on workshop to theannual Olin Summer Institute and has since grown into a strong cohort of over 40 institutionsthat meet monthly over Zoom and in person

ofthe TAs. Many instructors chose to have their TAs grade the reflections, which became difficultfor those TAs who were unable to attend class themselves:"I think one think that would have helped was to be involved in that maybe to just have a feel ofwhat their class is like, because while I was giving feedback, I'm giving feedback as a, what willI call it, third party - I don't know anything about the course. So, I'm only able to use myknowledge of engineering to kind of figure out what's going on...So probably being in one or twoclasses that they will reflect upon would have helped to guide them appropriately."

[4]. However, the impact of direct mentorship-mentee setup is limited by the number ofexpert users, in this case, the three faculty members (a mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer, andan artist), and their available time to mentor other faculty. Our study was born out of a desire to quicklyincrease the number of faculty members who would be not only familiar with makerspace andcomfortable working with the array of available equipment, but who could also fully integrate the use ofthe space into their courses.Entrepreneurially Minded Learning & makerspacesEntrepreneurially Minded Learning (EML) is about equipping engineering students to think likeentrepreneurs, not necessarily to become entrepreneurs.

the expresspurpose of encouraging multidisciplinary research. However, we discovered after six months of meetingthat having a group be this broad, while beneficial for many who are highly interested in interdisciplinaryresearch, was not for everyone. Having a group whose purpose was to conduct research projectsspecifically for purposes of integrating disciplines was too vague. Water is a critical issue front of mind formost Texans. It is also a theme that connects many different types of expertise including biology,engineering, technology, data science, agriculture, environmental science, chemistry, policy, economics,communications, education, marketing, and ethics. We converted the group from a theme of“multidisciplinary” to “water”, which
